SAN FRANCISCO (CBS.MW) -- Oracle on Monday beat Wall Street earnings expectations with profit that rose 15 percent from last year, due partly to stronger-than-expected sales to new customers.

Redwood Shores, Calif.-based software maker Oracle (ORCL: news, chart, profile) posted earnings of $617 million, or 12 cents a share, up from $535 million, or 10 cents a share, a year earlier. Analysts polled by Thomson First Call had expected Oracle to earn 11 cents a share, on average.

New software license sales rose 13 percent to $849 million. Analysts had projected new license sales in a range of $760 million to $811 million.
